Mulled Ale?

Does anyone have a tried and true recipe for mulled or spiced ale that they know is good and the proportions are right? I can't seem to find a recipe that doesnt' call for some commercially-prepared spice mix that we don't have here, or how to make it "from the hops up." I have access to dark German ale and would like to make it with sugar and spices, but I know if you get the proportions wrong it can taste bitter and strange.Anybody got a recipe they actually use?

I've never had mulled ale. I never knew it existed. Now I want to make some.

Look into it please, all the recipes I can find call for eggs and that sounds just gross even if you're NOT vegan. I happen to know you can "mull" wine with spices, but I am not terribly conversant with dark ales, I don't know if the same spices for red wine would work for ale.

To be frank, knowing the drinking habits current on VW I am surprised that so few people have responded to this. I would have thought y'all were conversant with both mulled wine and mulled ale, like centuries ago.
